‎CAMPS-FABRER Henriette‎

‎La disparition de l'autruche en Afrique du Nord‎

‎Alger, Institut français des sciences humaines en Algérie, 1963, in-8 br., 107 p., "Travaux du Centre de Recherches anthropologiques préhistoriques et ethnographiques", 20 figures (dont 2 cartes dépl. h.-t.), 2 planches photos, sous papier cristal, très bon état.‎

‎Comment expliquer que l'autruche, qui semble avoir vécu jusque sur le littoral oranais durant l'époque préhistorique, ait fini par disparaitre totalement de l'Afrique du Nord ? Après avoir étudié le rôle important que jouait ce oiseau dans la vie matérielle des Capsiens et des Néolithiques, et sa répartition durant les périodes préhistoriques, l'auteur s'interroge sur sa disparition, probablement causée par sa chasse (pour sa chair et surtout pour ses plumes) avec des moyens de plus en plus perfectionnés. Voir le sommaire sur photos jointes.‎

‎Cawston Ostrich Farm‎

‎South Pasadena: Cawston Ostrich Farm 1907. Loose Leaf. Very Good. No Date but circa 1907. Trade Card. 5 3/8 x 3 1/4 inches. Heavy card stock printed on both sides; recto with a black-and-white half-tone illustration of a man Edwin Cawston riding an ostrich while wearing a suit and a bowler hat the verso with a decorative initial and a description of the Farm; small abrasion on the illustration minor corners a bit worn. SCARCE. Very Good. Scarce early trade card for Cawston Ostrich Farm and the salesroom of "the new industry the manufacture of Ostrich Feathers at South Pasadena Ostrich Farm." The Cawston Ostrich Farm located on nine acres in the Arroyo Seco in South Pasadena was opened in 1886 the first Ostrich Farm in the United States. In 1885 Edwin Cawston shipped 50 birds from South Africa to Galveston Texas and then put the birds on a train to Southern California. Despite a mortality rate of 64 percent the population of ostriches at the farm reached over 1000 before the farm closed in 1935. Cawston Ostrich Farm became a premier tourist attraction for many years due to its proximity to the Pacific Electric trolley line that passed through downtown Los Angeles and stopped in South Pasadena at Main Street. Guests rode on the backs of ostriches rode in ostrich-drawn carriages and purchased ostrich-feathered hats boas capes and fans at the store and factory located on the property. Cawston Ostrich Farm feather products were shipped and sold throughout the world. Most of the original brick structure of the factory and store remain today as South Pasadena Cultural Landmark No. 18. Cawston Ostrich Farm unknown‎
